¶Dosing scheme for the enzyme preparation glucoamylase at a distillery 3000 dal / day
Enzymatic hydrolysis of starch is carried out using enzymes of the class of hydrolases, a subclass of carbohydrases, called amylases: a-amylase, b-amylase and glucoamylase. They differ in properties and mode of action on starch. Glucoamylase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes a-dextrins - polysaccharides of different molecular weights. As a result, products of complete hydrolysis of starch are formed - sucrose, fructose, glucose, which are affected by yeast cells with the subsequent formation of alcohol (ethanol).
The diagram shows an installation for the supply of glucoamylase in the process of hydro-ferment processing of wort at a distillery with a capacity of 3000 dal /day. The installation works as follows: wort from GDFO by a centrifugal pump (Q=25m3 /hour, H=32m.) are fed into a spiral heat exchanger to cool it down to the fermentation temperature. At the same time, circulating water is supplied from the water discharge header to the spiral heat exchanger, which then enters the water collection header.
To supply an enzyme preparation of glucoamylase from a container (canister 30 l) usemetering pump BT MF 30-4.
